HB 2281 establishes automatic voter registration in Texas for eligible residents interacting with certain government agencies. It mandates that individuals obtaining or updating a Texas driver’s license or personal identification card through the Department of Public Safety, as well as those applying for services from designated voter registration agencies, will be automatically registered to vote unless they explicitly opt out. The bill also modifies voter registration procedures to integrate agency and voter registration functions, including electronic data transfer to election officials.
